PE and Sports

These are important facets of the programme at Mission Heights Primary School and all students are encouraged to take an active part. We consider that all students should be given the opportunity to experience a wide range of physical activities, and the emphasis is on attitude, sportsmanship and perseverance in both individual and team sports.

Physical Education includes:

Major game skills

Minor game skills

Swimming

Ball Handling

Athletics

Sports Options include:

Softball

Rugby

Soccer

Netball

Hockey

Athletics

Cross Country

All students are involved in a daily fitness programme, for which students require the appropriate sports uniform. Many students are involved in inter-school sports competitions and compete against other schools in a variety of sports such as Swimming, Rugby, Cricket, Soccer, Netball, Hockey, Cross Country and Athletics. Students also have the opportunity to participate in Sports Field Days with other schools in the cluster.

Students are expected to bring a note from a parent if they are unwell or injured, or have some other reason for non-participation. Please ensure your child has his / her PE gear in their school bag daily. The school encourages students to use their RTL time before school starts to get ready for their daily physical activities.
